Introduction
This application note provides
a high-level overview of the
similarities and differences
between the Agilent N5700 and
the Sorensen DLM in order to
help current Sorensen DLM
owners easily convert from their
DLM to the more capable N5700A
Series.
It has been designed to
be used in conjunction with the
N5700 User’s Guide and data-
sheets as well as the Sorensen
DLM User’s Guide and data-
sheets. It is not a replacement
for any of the manuals and it is
recommended that a copy of all
the documentation mentioned
above be handy for reference
when reading this document.

Please see the references section on
page 8 for part numbers.
Three areas will be discussed
in this document: electrical,
programming/interfacing, and
mechanical. These sections will
cover such topics as the power
supply’s output power and pro-
tections (electrical), command
compatibility and calibration
(programming/interfacing), as
well as size and connector type
(mechanical).
Not much detail is provided
comparing the advantages and
disadvantages of the DLM when
compared to the N5700 in this
document. Please refer to the
reference section provided on
page 8 for details on how to
obtain AN 1502-1, which is a
side-by-side comparison of a
DLM60-10 to an N5747A.
